App Store changing country - store credit

Hi
please can someone help me - I've searched in the discussions but not found answers to my problem.
I need to change my account from Switzerland to Austria but when I try the app store says:
You have a store credit balance; you must spend your balance before you can change stores.
I have 0,20CHF - I can't buy anything for that, so I can't spend the money (I don't have a credit card that I can use on iTunes either so I can't add more credit and then spend the money).
I don't care about losing the 0,20 franks, I just want to be able to change my account information. Anyone?
I'd very much appreciate it! Thanks

You need to contact the Swiss iTunes Support and request that your account's credit be zeroed out so that with a zero balance you can switch the account to another country's iTunes Store.

  • HT204266 How do purchase app from different country store?

    Is that a way to purchase app from different country store?

    Well, if you are in India, and are using a credit card registered there, and associated with your userid and the India app store you should be able to purchase an app from that app store.
    If you are in the UK and attempting to purchase from the India store you may not be able to even connect...you might try and see if you can and what happens.

  • HT201272 Cannot download pervious purchased app after change country my AppleID registered..

    Cannot download pervious purchased app after change country my AppleID registered..
    How could I get app updates without change country back to origional country where I purchased app.?
    I have purchased lots apps on 2 country by same AppleID.
    It does not make sense to change the country setting.
    Due to in some country, iTunes online store only offer music/movies but NO TV show.
    So I change registered country of my AppleID to US store.
    Now I could purchased HD/1080p movies/TV shows, but cannot get app updates on iTunes which I purchased on pervious country.

    You must be within the Country with a Valid Billing Address and Credit Card for that Country to use the iTunes Store of that Country...

  • Updating apps after changing country & iTunes store

    Ive change country and updated my iTunes store account. Since then I've learnt that my apps are linked to the address of the iTunes account where they were brought. ITunes tells me I have apps that need to be updated, but when I ask it to show me these apps, I get nothing, as the apps to be updated dont match to the account I'm now using.
    The way I've managed to work around this is to transfer all my brought apps onto my iPad, and ask it to show me apps to be updated, which it happily does. I update all the apps with the iPad and then sync these pack to my Mac and now these apps have been updated to belong to my new iTunes account! Any updates to these apps can be done with iTunes from now on.
    My problem lies with the amount of apps I've brought over the last couple of years. I've updated the app's address using the above method for 90% of my apps, and now have the odd app that requires this lengthy process to catch the remaing 10%.
    My question is - is there a quicker way to find out which of my apps belong to my old iTunes store account without having to migrate back to my old iTunes store and changing bank account details?
    Thanks.

  • ITunes won't allow you to change country stores anymore?

    I hope not because it's a great way of discovering music from other countries.
    I get this message.. Unable to access allowance at this time,this information is needed to determined if a store change is possible.
    *** does that mean?

    First off, I need to see if you are doing it right. Have you tried going to iTunes store and then clicking on your country in the bottom right, after which you click on another country?

  • ITunes Store - change country

    I still have $0.1USD in my account which is pretty useless. I want to change my country to Canada since that's where my billing info is now... but it seems that I can't change country info until I use up the $0.1USD. What should I do? Any suggesions?
    Thanks.

    I have the same problem...I have 62 cents left and I want t change the country.
    How can I spend or even delete those cents without having to enter a billing address or credit card info. Is there perhaps a way to delete my own account?
    thx

  • Apps updates after country and credit card change

    This is my situation.
    1. I had an apple ID with country set to Italy and a given (italian address) credit card (let's call it IT_Apple_ID). I bought a certain number of apps. I believe they were roughly 60, but I am not sure.
    2. I wanted to redeem a gift voucher bought in the US. I set in my existing account the payment method to none, the voucher code in the  voucher code field, and in the address textbox the US address where I used to live (US_Apple_ID).
    3. I bought some apps while using the US_Apple_ID. Now the total number of apps in iTunes is 66.
    The problem is the following:
    From that moment on, all the updates available to download in iTunes and the number of updates suggested in iTunes (Apps, left menu) and the ones suggested in my iPhone (notifications in App Store) were no longer syncronized.
    For instance: my phone suggests 12 updates available. I open iTunes -> apps, I can see there are 12 updates available in the left hand side menu, but when I try to download those updates (bottom-righ button "12 Updates Available -> ") I get a "No updates available" message.
    After some Google searches I now know that I should have created a new apple ID whit the US address and payment set to none. That was the right way to proceed. I also guess that the updates that iTunes and iPhone are suggesting and that I cannot download are updates that exist in the IT_Apple_ID, but being logged in with the new US_Apple_ID the download is not allowed. (I also wonder why the **** I cannot, but that's another issue...)
    To try to fix the problem I created a new apple ID with US address, none as payment method and my voucher code.
    I re-set my old existing apple ID to the initial credit card number, address and so on.
    I deleted the apps bought while I was using the US_Apple_ID, download them again with the IT_Apple_ID.
    Now I have the exact same problem! I can see IT_Apple_ID + US_Apple_ID update availability, but I can only download the updates for the IT_Apple_ID apps! I know that the US_Apple_ID apps have updates available, but can't do anything.
    This thing is driving me crazy. Any suggestion?
